Default Upgrading To Power Bolsters???

Anyway to upgrade a drop down bolster to a power bolser? Just wondering if it there was a kit for this or if it is even possible. Thanks

Really have to check with the manufacturer of the seat. They will be able to discuss with you if it's possible or not. I did this with my boat and they told me if I had the newer style seats that it could be done, but with the older style that I have, it isn't worth the pain.... Not sure if that helps, but I think that each bolster is different and what might be easy to do with one isn't always the case with another. The big issue that they described is the accessibility to and placement of the hardware inside the seat......

If you come across something generic, please post.... I'd like to see it also....

Good luck!!!!

I think East Coast is right. I did it on my last boat abd it wasn't that bad a job but the seats were set up to accept the motors. If they only use one style seat you're in luck. Best to check with the boat or seat mfg.

Thanks guys, Thats what I thought, McCloud Bolsters were an option on my boat but they are pretty expensive to install at this point. For what it is worth I will deal with the drop downs.
